Matt: How about a short tutorial on upgrading to the latest WordPress via SVN? Your method. It would probably go a long way in the way people upgrade to WordPress and probably the closest to automating WordPress upgrades. 3 seconds? Wow!

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: get_bloginfo() in …/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 304

Is there any other way to fix this without downgrading to MySQL 4.0.24? I’m doing a website for a friend, and I don’t have shell access. I uploaded everything (FTP), but I’m getting this error when I try to run the install. Please help!

Minor point of confusion for me: I downloaded the 1.5.1 tar file and installed it. However, my admin console told me I was still running 1.5 (in the footer). I was worried the upgrade had failed, but in turns out the version.php file still says “1.5” instead on “1.5.1”. Just a heads up.
